Abstract: This invention relates to arrangements for interconnecting a plurality of stand-alone switches by data and communication channels (the latter typically used for communicating voice signals) in such a way as to make the plurality of switches act as if they were one switch. The invention further relates to arrangements for permitting groups of lines, the groups connected to different stand-alone switches, to be treated essentially as if they were connected to a single switch. Each switch of a symbiotic network (a group of stand-alone switches) or a virtual symbiotic network (the grouping of the groups of lines) accesses pertinent data in its own data base or the data base of one of the other switches of the symbiotic or virtual symbiotic network and treats the results of such data base accesses as if they were made internally in the switch. For a symbiotic network the trunks of all the switches of the network going to a common destination (and one such common destination can be any of the switches of another symbiotic network) are grouped into a single group so that an outgoing call can readily be made over a trunk connected to any of the switches of the symbiotic network. Similarly, incoming trunks to any switch of the symbiotic network from a common external source can be grouped into a single trunk group at that external source (which can be another symbiotic network). Advantageously, such an arrangement provides a convenient way of achieving the advantages of a giant switch without requiring the capacity of such a switch and without requiring the geographic concentration of traffic necessary to keep the links to a giant switch reasonably short. Advantageously, a virtual symbiotic network provides an economical and flexible solution to the problem of providing services such as wide area Centrex.

Abstract: A scan-type radar apparatus for a vehicle (52)
which determines with a high level of accuracy whether an
object (54) detected by the radar exists in the lane in
which the radar equipped vehicle (52) is moving while the
radar equipped vehicle (52) is moving in a curve. A scan-type
radar detects objects (54) existing in a detectable
range. A center direction is assumed which indicates a
center of each of the objects (54) detected by the scan-type
radar with respect to the vehicle (52) based on a
distance between the vehicle and each of the objects and a
turning radius of the vehicle. A vehicle moving lane area
is set within the detectable range. The vehicle moving
lane area, which corresponds to a vehicle moving lane in
which the vehicle (52) is moving, extends on either side
of the center direction with a predetermined angle range.
An extent of the vehicle moving lane area is corrected so
that an inner area of the vehicle moving lane area is
increased when the vehicle (52) is moving along a curve,
the inner area being a portion of the vehicle moving lane
area located on an inner side of the curve with respect to
the center direction.

Abstract: A digital signal processing method and apparatus in which no noise is produced when switching between an original sigma-delta modulated signal and a sigma-delta re-modulated signal obtained on sigma-delta modulation of the original sigma-delta modulated signal. In a digital signal processing device 1, delay line 3 delays the original sigma-delta modulated signal from an input terminal 2 by a pre-set number of samples. A sigma-delta modulator 6 sets the first-stage feedback loop to next stage feedback loop gain ratio to an integer and outputs a sigma-delta re-modulated signal. A bit length converter 5 matches the amplitude level of the original sigma-delta modulated signal entering the sigma-delta modulator 6 to the amplitude level of a feedback signal to a first-stage integrator employed in the sigma-delta modulator 6. On reception of a switching control signal S D  from an input terminal 7, the digital signal processing device 1 causes a pattern coincidence detector 28 to detect pattern coincidence between the original 1-bit signal S A  delayed by the delay line 3, having a number of taps corresponding to the gain ratio, and a sigma-delta re-modulated 1-bit signal S B , to output a detection signal S T . This allows a switching controller 29 to control switching of a changeover switch 4 to output a signal changed over from S A  to S B  at an output terminal 8.

Abstract: A method for producing a semiconductor laser device includes the steps of: forming window layers on either one of a top surface of an internal structure or a reverse surface of a substrate and on light-emitting end facets of the internal structure; forming a reflection film on the light-emitting end facets; removing the window layer formed on either one of the top surface or the reverse surface by using an etchant which hardly etches the reflection film; and forming electrodes on the surface from which the window layer is removed by etching and on the other surface. Another method for producing a semiconductor laser device includes the steps of: forming window layers on light-emitting end facets of the bars; inserting the bars into an apparatus having openings for forming electrodes and a supporting portion for preventing a positional shift between the bars and the openings, and forming the electrodes on the top surfaces and the reverse surfaces of the bars; and cutting the bars into the chips.

Abstract: An information recording device is provided, whereby an inexpensive stepping motor is used to drive a recording disk for recording information, the disk being driven under open-loop control by means of inexpensive digital circuit technology, without employing rotor position detectors or a speed detector, and the rotational accuracy of the recording disk is raised to a level suitable for application, without increasing cost, by constituting the aforementioned step operation (having poor rotational accuracy) inherent in the stepping motor such that certain relationships are formed between the structural parameters of the information recording device and the structural parameters of the motor. In a stepping motor, electrical energy is supplied by switching excitation at a timing synchronized to an input clock, regardless of the load. When this electrical energy is converted to mechanical energy, the moment of inertia of the rotating portion is exploited to a maximum in order to produce smooth rotation.

Abstract: A slide driving device employs a variable-displacement pump/motor for
driving a rotating element of the slide driving device. The displacement volume
of the variable-displacement pump/motor, whose output drives the slide, is varied
in response to deviation of measured driver parameters from commanded driver
parameters. An energy storage device temporarily absorbs excess energy during
a portion of a molding cycle, and returns the energy to the system for re-use. In
one embodiment, the energy storage device is an accumulator. In a second
embodiment, the energy storage device is a flywheel. The combination of variable
displacement volume and energy storage maintains the fluid pressure substantially
constant during a cycle of the slide driving device.
